NewsTranscript
00:00 The former AFP Western Command Vice Admiral Alberto Carlos
00:04 did not allow a new model in the West Philippine Sea
00:08 except for the Chinese Embassy's allegation.
00:11 DOJ said that China's record of wiretapping
00:14 was in the hands of Carlos and an official of China.
00:17 June Veneracion has a report.
00:19 Vice Admiral Alberto Carlos
00:26 was called by a Chinese military attache
00:30 when he was still the head of the AFP Western Command.
00:33 When the Senate heard about the Chinese Embassy's wiretapping,
00:38 Carlos said that he was called by Senior Colonel Lee in January.
00:43 They talked about lowering tensions in the West Philippine Sea,
00:47 especially whenever there is a rotation and resupply mission
00:50 for the troops in BRP Sierra Madre in Iungin Shoal.
00:54 But
00:55 there are stories about me making secret deals with China
00:59 and their officials.
01:01 These are completely false.
01:03 I have not compromised the country's territorial integrity.
01:08 I have not given up our sovereign rights and entitlement.
01:13 The Chinese Embassy said that
01:15 Carlos agreed to a new model
01:18 for the resupply mission in the West Philippine Sea.
01:21 We did not discuss the new model.
01:24 We did not discuss the term common understanding,
01:30 new model.
01:32 We're not part of our conversation.
01:35 I condemn the act of the Chinese Embassy
01:39 to record the conversation without my consent.
01:43 When asked about the details of the phone conversation
01:46 that lasted for three to five minutes,
01:48 Vice Admiral Alberto Carlos was talking in the Executive Session.
01:52 The senators agreed.
01:54 Carlos was removed from his post as West Com Chief
01:58 amidst the controversy.
01:59 Carlos asked for Colonel Lee's approval,
02:03 but he did not respond.
02:05 According to the Department of Justice,
02:07 the wiretapping happened.
02:09 It can be considered as a violation of the anti-wiretapping law.
02:13 Even though it was invited,
02:15 the Chinese Ambassador Wang Zilian did not interfere.
02:18 DFA Secretary Enrique Manalo said
02:21 it depends on the results of the investigation of law enforcement agencies
02:25 if a foreign diplomat who is involved in crime
02:29 like violating the anti-wiretapping law is to be removed.
